Water Gardens
This stone-wall-fountains landscaping feature is adjacent to a very large covered patio. The homeowners love to entertain outdoors and wanted a controlled water feature that was low maintenance and not too loud. This was my answer to their desire. It's free standing with a mound behind . The chaste tree was already there and we built around it. By a hundred miles this is the favorite wall fountain we have designed and installed. It is a pondless design so that when not in use no maintenance is required . If left on all summer, all that needs to be added is some chlorine, to keep the algae from growing.
This weeping wall fountain adds depth to a shallow and small back patio. the back property line was only 3 feet from the edge of the patio shown here. By adding this water feature the guests can enjoy privacy as well as the water feature. Lets not forget the subtle noise given by this wall fountain. The gentle trickle of this fountain doesn't overpower conversations, instead it calms them. You can talk with your friends and guests in a whisper without even realizing it.
Space saving stone-wall-fountains create excellent atmosphere near an entry or in a courtyard. Most of them are designed to mount on a wall while some of them sit on the ground against the wall. There is a large variety of types, sizes and textures to choose from. Prices range from a couple hundred dollars to a few thousand.
The nice thing about a wall fountain is the ability to fit it in anywhere in a small yard. The sound is small too, so there won't be a problem with talking and not being able to hear.
These wall mount garden fountains are great in small spaces and can be part of your home decor. All you need is an outlet to plug into. If you're in the process of building your home, you can frame a recessed arch cubical with power right where it needs to be
These are like individual pieces of art for the garden or courtyard they just blend into the decor when they are not running. But , when they're on they add two more treats for the senses, the sound and the shimmer of the moving water.
Most are easy to maintain since you simply add water with a hose when the level gets low.
